[3] It includes Paradise Village, a 55-plus retirement community, founded in early 1990, many of whose residents are "snowbirds".

Anne arrived in 1856 at Pointe-des-Chênes ('where the oaks meet') from Quebec in search of farmland.

The main industry within this initial settlement to the area, which included 198 families, was purposed towards supplying lumber for the construction of the Saint Boniface Cathedral.

By the end of the decade, the Hudson's Bay Company established a trading post in the community, which eventually brought the settlement a hotel, general store, and a jail.

Anne was incorporated in February 1881, but soon after amalgamated with the Rural Municipality of LaBroquerie in 1890.
